Dragapult @ Life Orb
Ability: Infiltrator
EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Draco Meteor
- Shadow Ball
- Hydro Pump
- U-turn
This spectral drake has posed itself as a outstandingly fast and powerful attacker in DOU! It outruns the entire unboosted metagame, bar Zeraora, using its power and coverage to instantly threaten several top offensive Pokemon like Naganadel, Landorus, and Urshifu-R. Since Dragapult's Ghost typing grants an immunity to Fake Out, it can more reliably pin down the aforementioned threats than other Pokemon would. In addition, STAB Shadow Ball provides excellent neutral coverage, giving it consistent decent damage, while still hitting important Pokemon like Mew and Metagross hard. Dragapult's talents are best utilized on semi-Trick Room teams, as their slower nature makes it difficult to handle the faster offensive Pokemon that Dragapult keeps in check. In exchange, the heavy damage those teams can dish out under Trick Room is active makes it much easier for Dragapult to pick up KOs with Shadow Ball late-game.
